| Bottom Line: |
Alternadudes is definitely a unique site featuring several kinds of alternative styled models like surfers, rockers, emos, punks, goths, skaters, guys with tattoos and piercings. Their styling doesn't seem fake, most models are very authentic. Model age is ranged from 18 to early 30s and some scenes offer a quite unusual model mix. The amount of solos is - especially for older scenes - quite high with alot more duo scenes appearing recently.
The site runs actually on a WordPress blog as CMS, a thing I've never seen before, but it actually works out pretty well, the only thing I'm missing is an actual search-field. You can search by model, tag or date and you can sort both - models and scenes - by number of views, ratings, date and name. You can leave comments on model and scene pages and you can rate them or add them to your favorites for later browsing. Model pages give alot of information and I actually think those information is honest, a thing I rarely see, because dicks are smaller and models might be older than what other sites tell you they are. There are model interviews for nearly every model on the site.
All videos are available as stream or download in different sizes up to 1280x720p HD MP4. Every scene is available as medium-quality WMV. Streaming and downloading is very fast, you can download multiple scenes at once and download links do not expire. You are limited to streaming one scene at once, though. Download managers are supported, but you can't browse the site during your download, because you can only have one session logged in, so you are logged out of the site in your browser while you use your download manager. Model interviews are streaming-only, you can't download them.
Production quality seems to be very professional, lightning and camera work are very good, some scenes get sent-in by amateur models shot at their home, quality depends on the model's setup. There could be a bit more story line, most scenes start right away, it's sad, because there's a wide range of sets they use to shoot videos and it would be very easy to create a story out of those.
Extras are a monthly desktop wallpaper calendar and behind-the-scenes action. I didn't like the wallpapers, but the behind-the-scenes were fun and interesting to watch.
Photos are often vid caps, you can tell the site's focus is videos. They are available for download as ZIP or as slideshow.
Overall the site is very unique and offers you exclusive content, you'll see nowhere else. Videos are very enjoyable, but 4 updates a month is not enough to pay $29,95 / month. |
